OK. The contest has been running for 7 hours. Georgi is circling $25,000 in profit give or take, so let's assume he makes 25% in 8 hours of trading. September has 22 trading days, or 66 * 8 hours. Using compounding, the benchmark to win this contest ...

MIG Contest — Lion, Just curious, have you entered the contest? I just looked at the results page, after a couple of hours of trading some folks are up by (a ridiculous) 20% or more. So they're clearly over-leveraging, and if you want to go to ...

At the moment both Tokyo and London sessions are inactive (after hours/bank holiday) and there seems to be no volume in the market. Occasionally my M1 charts actually do not even form candles. So even if the indicator lines up across all timeframes ...

Fair enough! I wish you all success for your trading, and hope you keep sharing what you feel you can. jesper

Was it Keynes who remarked that, "The market can stay irrational much longer than you can stay liquid"? Just being in oversold territory -- and I don't even know what your indicators are -- does not guarantee it will go up. That's an impressive ...

Buy at market, or stop or limit order? Indicator signal or from support/resistance? Where is your stop loss and what does that mean for risk-reward? How did you arrive at those target levels? Is this scalping or position trading? Just curious...

Gone! 145 pips in the bank (I entered upon breaking the pivot yesterday at 155.65).

I pulled my stop tight to 154.20, as it seems to be having problems convincingly breaking below 154. In any case, the S3 fib pivot and Friday's low at 153.6 is the target for me.

SeriousTrading

Yup, I'd like to see that go, if it's just for some sense of direction...

1.6430 is the S1 fibo pivot for today on my charts. 1.6418 was the daily low last Friday, so your TP looks viable to me. I'd probably even let it run a bit more to above the Aug. 19 low by 1.6380, which is where the S2 comes in. jesper

TEMA vs HA-Smoothed — Hi Lion, I like to work with Heikin-Ashi Smoothed. I also usually try on the indicators that you post for size. When you worked with T3MA as part of xpMA it changed color according to slope, which was visually very easy ...

Trev, thanks. "Freeman" did the trick and got me in. Only problem now, the indicator compiles "dirty", it doesn't display the way it does in your screenshots. Can you upload the .ex4 or .mq4 file that you have? Having the same indicator would make ...

Thanks. Unfortunately, I'm having problems registering on the site with my Tokyo address -- weird (also, I need to fill in the last name of the famous runner Cathy ______ to authenticate myself. I have positively no idea who that could ...

Your indicator — Is that an auto-pivot you are using? If it is not commercial, could you post it? Would like to play with it... Thanks in advance, jesper

Make that four. I'm short GBPJPY from 155.74, SL 157.25 (above last H4 spike to 156.66 and psychological barrier at 157), targeted area initially below 154. The risk-reward ratio is worse than I like, but I was looking for a good entry point on a ...

Lion, Your bias for GBP is to the upside? Thanks, jesper

What makes you think so? The D1 GBP index (I'm using Liteforex) is close to the bottom of the range it has been holding since early July, and I don't judge the indicators to be in overbought territory. USD index is also not showing particular ...

Second close below the short-term support line on the H4 chart and the Heikin-Ashi Smoothed indicator has turned bearish. I am trying to hold short for the lower channel line at around 152. H1 pice action, however, looks to be getting sluggish on ...

SeriousTrading

Thanks for sharing. I still see room to run and test 154.00 (as per my previous post). So I prefer locking in some profit with a tight stop above current price and then "hope" (oh the dreaded word!) that the BOE minutes due in one hour help push the ...

Short TP for today — Following your threads I start to trust your analysis more than mine ; today, however, I'm inclined to give it another 100 pips to the downside. On the H4 chart we have a downward TL channel from the peak on August 7. ...
